Here il was she had been painting. Those
wheel tracks We're made by the wagon that
had escaped him. This was her palette
lni.e which the careless servants had
dropped, or overlooked. He wiped the dew
from the bright blade and put the knife in
his pocket.
Following the wagon-traclzs towards the
left, he found, not much farther on "a dainty
lace handkerchief.
Luck has al last come TO me" he said,
aloud, putting the handkerchief in his pocket
with the knife.
Then it occurred to him her name might
be upon il. He looked again at ii. In the
clear light Of the moon he could distinguish

excited state, this name would not away
from him, and kept fitting through his
brain. as he passed rapidly down the road,
that now descended. The brook that he had
heard in the vale below, came nearer. He
had no doubt this was the stream that
fed the pool where first he saw her. Turn
ing sharply to the right, the brook then fol-
lowed the windings of the principal
thoroughfare Walking briskly along, the
man, as he expected, soon came to the we'll
remembered pool
Yes! here it was that she had stood be-
side her horse; there was the stone on
which she had slept, VIII n remountng HIM,

bushes that had concealed her unsupported

He stopped to drink, for he was thirsty,
and feverish with excitement.
As he rose something fell from his pocket
into the water. II was the palette-knife.
Eagerly he snatched it from the grasp Of
his friend. the brook. saying:
Not so fast, master broollet. We both
may admire the same woman. but have the
prior claim upon this palette-lmife.
Drying it again, he was about to put it
carefully away once more, when moon
beam fell brilliantly upon the knife. Was il

most eXquisitely, in minute characters, were
the first few bars Of his favorite Addio, q
song that he had heard many times in
America, and one that always strangely af-
fected him. The words seemed to reflect his
own monotonous life:
"HuSh. voice from the far.away.

On the opposite side of the handle, in Jew
cled relief, were the words: Natalie from

proof positive that his first presentiment
was correct.

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Il tell thee, scholar, God has two
dwellings-onc in Heaven. and the
other IN a meek and thankful heart. -
Isaak HidtOn.
Every man who becomes heartily
and Understandings a channel of the
Divine beneficence is enriched through
every league of his life q: Hot-
land.
1t is the Christians duty to live
looking up, not simply when he is ex-
pecting an answer to his prayers, but
always God is above, and his ewes are
to be toward Him.
No man is ever off duty. In all
places and at all times he is to be
armed, watchful, ready for his work.
The Scriptures make no provisions for
"puttIng off" the armor of God.
We can not be earnest about any
thing which does not naturally and
strongly eHgage our thoughts. Far
more than mere talents or acquire
ments, enthusiasm and energy in work
carry the day. DR. TullOch.
One of the Bible statements Of
Gods omniscience is in these words:
but all things are make and opened
unto the eyes of Him (God) with whom
we have to do" No man has any Sc
crets which God can not see. God has
appointed day in which He will
bring "every work into judgment. with
every secret thing" We may deceive
ourselves and others. but we can not
deceive Him. Every act of our lives is
done directly under His eye.
Two sisters had thirst for knowl-
edge. They were longing for the OPP
portunity to go away TO college. They
had counted the cost and found it far
exceeded their slender purse. They
were asked by friend: Can't your
father help you?" Yes. but it costs
so much to train his colts; he is fitting
them for the race course. And so il
is. there are not a few fathers who ex-
pend more to fit their horses for the
race course than their children for the
race Of life Our Church Work.
We are invited in the Bible to cast
all our care and burdens upon the Lord,
and are assured that He careth for us
When we do this or attempt TO do IL
we should not at the same time demand
that He shall conduct His providence
according TO our short-sighted vi ion Of
things. We should from the heart give
our cordial consent that God shall
manage His providence in His own
way. He viii do so whether we give
the consent or not II IS His provi-
dence to manage. and not ours.-& y.

Shakespeare house, this would foot up an
income OF sixty dollars per day. Certainly
this great amount OF money is not all re-

Helping the Poor.

"The poor We have with you Away,
and whatsoever we will We may do
them good" you seem," says our
Lord, ''to be greatly Interested in the
poor That is we'll This woman has
single opportunity to do an act that
will express her love to me in her
own way. Let her alone. In the
meantime the poor are always about
you. If YOU are really concerned about
and for them, there shall never fail you
an opportunity for doing them good
You would have this woman give her
substance TO them. Are you giving
yours in free measure? Don't blame
her; but see to it that you do the poor
good yourselves out of your own
goods" We all seem anxious in these
days to have others take care of the
poor. We would have all men resign
their other work and all their possess
sions especially their land) and relieve
the wants of the poor; the idle poor as
well as the industrious poor, the devil
poor as well as the Lord poor. The
best way for the sincere well-wishers
of the poor to help them is to do it
themselves up to their ability out of
their own means, and be doing it every
dav; here little and there little. A
eonsecrated example on this point will
do more to induce others to help in the
good work, thousand times over. than
all the indignant protests we may utter
against what we count the misuse or
unwise diversion of their property by
others. If we were all as liberal with
our own "precious ointment" as we
are with the ''alabaster boxes of our
neighbors, we would quickly relieve
vast amount of poverty, which we are
waiting for others to do. --IjidspendsHt

The Drying of Our Tears.

God has promised that a period shall
be put to the reign of sorrow: God
shall wipe away tears from off all
eyes" Isa. XIV. s. Can we not wipe
away our own tears? Never If any
man dry his own tears he shall weep
again; but if God dry our tears, our
eyes shall never lose their light 1t all
comes. therefore, TO n consideration Of
this solemn question-W shall put
an end to this sorrow? Shall we try
frivolity-shall we drown our sorrows,
shall we Danish our grief by pre-engsg-
ing our memory by things that die in
their using? Or shall we say: Thou
living God Of all joy. Thou canst put
an end TO all voc; make my heart
glad. and then my face will shine; take
the guilt away from my conscience and
my whole nature. and then my tears
will cease to flow? This is interior
work, this is a spiritual miracle, this
belongs TO the reign of God and the
ministry of grace. We resign our
selves. not passively and murmuringly.
but actively and thankfully. 70 God,
that He may make rs glad with His
